Halfway Between 85 and 506

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 506?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=85 and Y=506.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 506, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 506 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 506)/2 = 295.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 506 is 295.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 295.5 and subtract 295.5 from 506 and compare the two numbers:

295.5 - 85 = 210.5
506 - 295.5 = 210.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 210.5 higher than 85 and 210.5 lower than 506. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 295.5 above is correct.
